Summary

I am 21 year, turning 22 in October. I am the oldest of 3 children. I started looking after my younger siblings from the ages of 12. My mother is a swimming teacher and I learned allot from her. I am homeschooled from the ages 14. I started playing softball at 15 and played the sport for 4 years. After Covid I started doing kickboxing for self defense and fitness.

I did a short photography class and realy loved that. I like being creative like drawing and painting.

I love working with children because of their innocence.
